Music
Our aim is for the children to develop their love for music and feel confident when singing and performing. They will understand the key musical terms, appreciate a variety of musical genres and composers and have the opportunity to play different percussion instruments.
Music lessons taught in KS! and KS2 will correspond with the national curriculum guidance and focus on the four main strands for musical learning - singing, listening, composing and performing. The main emphasis will be on singing.
Music Co-ordinator Mrs Nicola Chambers
‘’Music is our way of expressing ourselves. Our voice is our instrument. So feel the rhythm, feel the beat, sing your heart out and tap those feet. Relax, Smile and improvise - enjoy and go with the flow!"
